We take our dog for walks, we color, we watch Baby Einstein every morning while I have my cup of coffee, we go to the grocery store, she "helps" me with laundry and sweeping, we read books, sing songs, dance, we play with her kitchen set and name all the colors and different objects, etc. We have another neighbor who is a SAHM with a 2 year old so if my DH is working the late shift, then we let the kids play outside together for a couple hours before our husbands get home. If DH is working a 14 hr shift, then halfway through the day, we stop by his work for a couple minutes so she can give her daddy a hug and kiss. Her ped was very impressed with my dd's communication skills since she has put two and three words together occasionally to talk to us, so I feel like I must be doing something right. We are hardly ever bored and if it isn't too cold out, then I take her to the park to play. If it is cold, then once or twice a month, we go to the mall and play in the kids area there. We occasionally go on playdates and have church on Wednesday nights and Sundays. She is very active and social.

I stay home a lot like you. We do the occasional playgroup once a week and grocery runs, but kosty just stay home and play. There is nothing that will be more positive than spending time with your LO, whether it's at home or out of the house. Being at home gives them a predictable and one on one experience which is great for their development. It's great to be social and go out, but it's not better or worse! They learn so much by being at home with you! Although, sometimes you need to get out for your own sanity! That's what we do sometimes!

We stay at home too, I think it is a pain to take LO out. We do sensory bins, we play together, I clean and he plays by himself, nap, eat and before I know it DH is home. When the weather is nice we go for walks or play outside.

I stay home a lot, but try to get out with the girls once twice a week. It 's harder because I dont have a car during the day and the weather is starting to get really cold

But we go to the park and the store when the weather is nice. I walk to my sisters once or twice a week, but its like a 30 minute up a big hill with a double stroller... the more pregnant I get the harder that is :(

we also spend lots of time at home and i think its better to be with me than anyone else but she does get tired of me and loves to be outside and spend time with other babies, just try to balance it out.

I'm rarely home for more than a few hours at a time.
Our things we do varies but we usually go eat lunch with my mom and little siblings once a week, lunch with hubby one a week or once every two weeks, I split my grocery trips up to twice as week, go to the bank, and soon we will be Christmas shopping too.
I visit a friend and my sister or have them come over, go to the library for bouncing babies, and we have church Sunday mornings.
